Every one of God'* promise- I* mnriltlcnul. He nenr fall* In Ihr

Accordant to ull that he promised, there hath not failed one word of
all hLs good promise*.—I Kings I M

THERE is no need to tell again the story of America's
wartime accomplishments. We know it well. Anil we
can he proud that no nation, caught alrfiost wholly unpre-
pared and stunjf by initial defeat, had ever armed itself
so strongly and so ipiickly.
lint |»erhaps the stoi\ i* mu familiar. May Ik* we have
thought annul it toe much, and in the past tense. And so j
it is more of a shoes to I'iiul now that for all we have done,
e enough.
We have not done enough because tisi few have ilom
much of the work in whut should be an nil-out effort. We
have not done enouifh Imcmise some ol us seemed to think
Ihal victory was a long but assured process which some-
how could Is* achieved witnout disrupting too seriously
our normal diets, comforts, and pleasures.
It has not been entirely the people's fault. Some of
our military leaders and heaos ol government have more
than once tried to spare us the full information and stern
demands that war requires. They have predicted in m-
temperate ho|ie, and lisiked too far beyond the day's tasks.
# V W
OW, suddenly, disquieting reports have come from Eu-
t home we have learned that the food
supply is tighter than ever. (We may have to eat fewer
things and pay ration (mints for more things.) We have
learned that many items of war equipment are short.
(Some of us will have to forego a trip to the race track
and stick to our jobs.)
Such news in the past has been the signal for many
of us to blame the OPA or something, and pass the buck
- to “government bungling'' to excuse a little cheating, ehis-
* cling, ami black marketing.
j There have been inequities and blunders in putting
'our vast and complex nationul economy on n war luisis.
I That was inevitable. The job was in the hands of many
. human, fallible men. Rut instead of trying to make then*
- mistakes less frequent and dnmuging, a lot of us have ag-
gravated them. We have balked at being inconvenienced.
* o *
I 'J'He governments and |ieoplc of England and Russia have
contended with worse things than the bureaucratic
’ mistakes of our own untouched land. They have perservered
* against hunger, cold, destruction and death, while too
| many of us have connived to get steaks and extra gasoline.
' But now the sorrow oi war is coming daily into more
and more of our homes. I; is not time to realize, as the
casualty lists grow, thal we at home cannot help end this
war with half a mind mid half a heart? Is it not time to
* lenlize, ns the casualty lists grow, thal we at home canno'
r help end this war with halt a mind and half a heart? Is
it not time to admit that it is neither possible nor im-
. port ant that we have all our usual creature comforts'*
If we must fast a little, can we not do it from humil-
ity rather than compulsion? We are only asked to taste
a morsel of our soldiers' and sailors' sacrifices in gratitude
for the exemplary courage with which they fight and die
Now that race tracks are closed, just think of the mon-
ey the customers will save and can put into war I Kinds!
Talk is revived of drafting women for industry. Per-
haps we don’t need pin-ups as much as buckle-downs.
